yay suda 51 another fun game by them and another great review from yahtzee ^^

 

[u2rocksbaby]

Holy shit no way! I loved this game, but didn't think Yahtzee would review it!

 

[Onyx Oblivion]

I must go and get this game to support this shit.

MUST. GO. NOW.

I'll start on Hard, btw.

 

[lwm3398]

This... This sounds amazing. A bit of a clusterfuck maybe, but amazing nonetheless.

 

[flyingwithsharks]

"which as game stories go is only slightly newer than 'you have to shoot the thing'"

^ My favourite line in this review

This game also sounds fucking amazing

 

[katsabas]

First Jim says it is not a piece of shit and now Yahtzee. I am kind of surprised.

 

[ipop@you]

Hadn't heard of it, I wanted it from the guys name regardless of what Yahtzee said.
Also best closing line ever, describes every night of my life.

 

[therockdemon]

now i know what i should buy instead of DNF

 

[Limecake]

wow there are a bunch of gaming industry references in this video.

never heard of the game, but honestly the part where you talked about the "boner" gun sold me. A 2d shooter segment? Why haven't I heard of this game?

the game legitimately sounds like a nice break from reality and I will be now looking for it even with all it's flaws!

 

[-Dragmire-]

Sounds like a good rental. Get some laughs on the weekend and your done.

The gun's naming scheme made me laugh a bit more than I should have I think...

 

[Cavouku]

Ah, sounds like he recovered nicely.

This definitely sounded like a recommendation, with some "you may notice these problems, here". And if I wasn't saving up for the big road trip this August, it might end up on my buy list. For now, I'm gonna see if there's a demo, and how much fun I can get out of it.

 

[Something Amyss]

Never even heard of this game before. Speaking of "never heard of it," I loved the "interaction" at the beginning with Yahtzee explaining who the guy was...And what he was known for.

 

[Hungry Donner]

They did use a presidential naming scheme, you just don't know enough about Lyndon "let's have a meeting while I'm on the toilet" Johnson. Yes, there was a time America's presidents were a bit more fun - and it even extended past the humorous facial hair period.

 

[Shirastro]

Hang on a minute, is that weapon actually called "A big Boner" or is that just Yahtzee being Yahtzee?

 

[Neotericity]

It's been awhile for me to have giggled like a manly leprechaun all the way through one of your videos, not to say previous episodes haven't been funny, but this episode had an exceptional touch, superb writing as always!

 

[crimson sickle2]

I heard on another site that the game has the ascetic of a gritty and mostly boring shooter due to EA's influence, the publisher. I'll give it a look, but from what I've seen so far, it looks too restrained.

 

[Jas0913]

i too was expecting so much from this game but it turned out to be ass.... and no i didn't have any fun playing it. F*** YOU SUDO!

 

[orangeapples]

That introductory bit was hilarious because I didn't know any of those names until you mentioned the game they were attached to.

And the game still sounds like fun although a bit odd, but still fun.
